Zoo Trip

Zoo Trip!
We took the boys to the zoo for the 1st time in several years. There were many new exhibits that made the trip fun. This is the entrance to the Children's Zoo. My Youngest enjoyed petting the goats!
This is just 1 of the lorikeets that liked me. I had 2 on my head earlier...a weird experience.

I've never been this close to a flamingo before. We could almost pet them.

The Oklahoma Trails exhibit, made up of all the animals found in our great state...including the 2 animals in front of the glass :-)

We love the Tigers. This one seemed to watch us, wonder what he was thinking?...Yum?

The monkeys all together. Everytime we go to the zoo, the boys take a picture with these gorillas. The boys keep getting bigger.







The new elephant exhibit.

Plateau...

Well I've plateaued...or I plateaued back before Christmas. I haven't lost any weight, and I haven't gained any weight, which is probably a miracle with the amount of sugary goodness I've eaten in the last 3 months!

I'm finally back on schedule though. No more holidays or snow days to de-rail me from my walking and no more baking to eat!

I've made it out to the mall 5 times this week and I've been able to walk about 10 miles!

All the chocolate goodies are gone out of the house so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the scale will start falling again. It's not like I'll be sitting around the house bored (I usually eat the most when I'm bored), since I've started running around taking the boys to soccer practice and games, baseball practice, track practice, track meets, etc. Baseball games and t-ball practice will be starting soon. I don't have time to cook food, much less eat it!
